Lovely review...Got a question here, will the rubber parts of this diver, especially the ring under the bezel be a concern over time? Not that I dive at all but I am curious to hear from the floor if anyone had brought this up before. Cheerios

No problems with any of the rubberclad parts or the gasket. I've owned Royal Oaks for a number of years and the gasket in between the bezel and the case has never gotten damaged.

IMO, they look great with a nice rubber diver strap. An Iso or something similar.

They SS bracelet they use on them are very sharp though. Love the link connectors..

Great post.

Well done, sir.

PS - You really should consider putting the bracelet on it (if you already have one for another stainless steel Offshore, it will fit just fine):

Love that combo too

This is the kind of review I like to read.. Clear and simple with lots of mentioning about the details of the watch, and real life experience of wearing it. Great job Hal!
(Again... I wonder how I have missed this thread for so long! )
